Charlie Hewitt’s drawings are the way in which he unpacks his own psychic baggage, examining his life and the life around him and com-menting on the human condition. His images are a form of shorthand for experience. They are meaningful in the way that tattoos are mean-ingful, recording that which is most important to an individual in a direct and conceptually economic way.
